A low frequency rotational energy harvesting system
This paper presents a rotary power scavenging unit comprised of two systems of flexible beams connected by two masses which are joined by means of a spring, considering a PZT (QP16N, Midé Corporation) piezoelectric sheet mounted on one of the beams. The energy harvesting (EH) system is mounted rigidly on a rotating hub. The gravitational force on the masses causes sustained oscillatory motion i...
متن کاملA Low Frequency FBG Accelerometer with Symmetrical Bended Spring Plates
To meet the requirements for low-frequency vibration monitoring, a new type of FBG (fiber Bragg grating) accelerometer with a bended spring plate is proposed. Two symmetrical bended spring plates are used as elastic elements, which drive the FBG to produce axial strains equal in magnitude but opposite in direction when exciting vibrations exist, leading to doubling the wavelength shift of the F...
متن کاملUsing Gravity to Estimate Accelerometer Orientation
Several wearable computing or ubiquitous computing research projects have detected and distinguished user motion activities by attaching accelerometers in known positions and orientations on the user’s body. This paper observes that the orientation constraint can probably be relaxed. An estimate of the constant gravity vector can be obtained by averaging accelerometer samples. This gravity vect...
متن کاملRotational Frequency Shift
The notion of the rotational frequency shift, an analog of the Doppler shift, is introduced. This new frequency shift occurs for atomic systems that lack rotational invariance, but have stationary states in a rotating frame. The rotational frequency shift is given by the scalar product of the angular velocity and the angular momentum of the emitted photon in full analogy with the standard Doppl...
متن کاملRE<C: Heliostat Orientation Estimation Using a 3-Axis Accelerometer
After testing many different designs, we built a rough orientation control system using a 3-axis accelerometer, able to sense and direct mirror orientation with close to one degree of precision (20 milliradians) for the entire motion range of the mirror. This level of precision is required for orientation tasks such as stowing the mirror in high winds and bringing the light spot close enough to...
